Rio Rancho Public Schools superintendent to retire
RIO RANCHO — It's the end of an era for Rio Rancho Public Schools. In fact, it's the end of the only era the district has known.
On Wednesday, Superintendent Dr. Sue Cleveland and the Rio Rancho Board of Education announced that Cleveland will retire later this year.
Cleveland led the district for more than 30 years — being hired in February 1994 to lead the upstart district when it officially began July 1 of that year — making her the longest currently serving superintendent in the state, according to a release from RRPS.
Under her tenure, the district has grown from 5,900 students in seven schools to more than 16,000 students on more than 20 campuses it oversees currently, including Shining Stars Preschool, 11 elementaries, four middle schools, four high schools and the just-opened RioTECH, the district's CTE campus.
